Moore's main home on the property, which he shared with his wife Bobbie, was built from the old floor joists of a grain warehouse.

Although found pieces and sculptures of various sorts are scattered about the property, the junk castle stands as a vigil above the rest. A masterpiece of assemblage, the castle is constructed from items that range from sheet metal, tin, washing machine parts, dryer doors, miscellaneous housings, bedsteads, and even the door from a 1952 Oldsmobile. Since he built it in the 70s, Moore didn’t face many building restraints from authorities and the castle was constructed for just $500.

Moore’s main home on the property, which he shared with his wife Bobbie, was built from the old floor joists of a grain warehouse.
